Subject: gelatin re-embedding
Dear histonetters-
I am working with stained chick embryo, embedded in 20% gelatin ,that I am cutting 30-50 micron sections on a vibratome. I would like to exhaust the specimen, but I have reached a point that I must melt the gelatin, and re-embed the embryo. Any suggestions, help, or protocols on gelatin embedding would be appreciated.
Thanx!
